This open tender is currently in the planning stage, with a closing date for submissions set for 7th February 2022, at 13:00 hours. The contract is slated to commence on 10th May 2022 and run until 9th May 2024. The primary focus of this project falls under health and social work services, targeting residents aged 18 and over who may face challenges such as inactivity, mental health struggles, or social isolation. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in health and fitness, outdoor activities, or community engagement services to expand their operations. Companies offering programmes designed to improve physical activity levels and mental wellbeing, such as outdoor exercise sessions, sports activities, and wellbeing walks, would be particularly well-positioned to compete for this contract. Providers experienced in working with vulnerable populations or those requiring guidance in utilising greenspaces effectively will find this opportunity aligns well with their service offerings. ## Notice Sandwell MBC would like to commission a provider to deliver an active greenspaces programme. The programme will be delivered in Sandwell's principle parks and key greenspaces. The aim of this service will be to improve public health outcomes associated with accessing and using greenspaces, and to increase the physical activity levels of those who are classed as inactive (doing less than 30 minutes of activity per week). The services will target residents who are over the age of 18. The target population may be physically inactive, suffering with mental health issues and lack the confidence and knowledge to use greenspaces to improve their health and wellbeing. They may also feel socially isolated and have limited access to greenspace at home. We will be looking for a provider to: - Develop nature-based programmes to encourage residents to increase their levels of physical activity, enhance their connection to the natural outdoor environment and improve their mental wellbeing. - This can include activities such as; outdoor exercise (tai chi, yoga, circuits, gentle exercise), wellbeing walks, cycling and led rides, sports activities (such as rounders, cricket, walking sports, tennis) and targeted activities for people who may be suffering from social isolation and poor mental health.
